FruityWifi: An Open Source Wireless Network Auditor

Continuing with my current interest with Raspberry Pi based security tools again. My last post was about P4wnP1. This post is about FruityWiFi an open source tool that helps you with wireless network auditing.

What is FruityWifi?

FruityWifi is an open source tool based on WiFi Pineapple to audit wireless networks that can be installed on any Debian based operating system. Though this was initially meant only for Raspberry Pi, support now exists for all Debian based operating systems. It can even be installed on your favourite Kali Linux! It has been successfully tested on Debian, Kali Linux, Kali Linux ARM (Raspberry Pi), Raspbian (Raspberry Pi) and NetHunter. FruityWifi already has support for a lot of tools and more can be added easily. Their installation is also taken care by an included installer.

Download & install FruityWifi:

Technically, this should do it all on a Kali Linux installation:

apt-get install fruitywifi

However, if you want to control the installation, you can check out the FruityWifi GIT repository here. There is an interesting article which discusses installation on a Raspberry Pi Zero W and an Ethernet Gadget that can be found here.
